On one she smiles, and he was blest; She smiles elsewhere--we make a din! But 'twas not love which heaved her breast, Fair child!--it was the bliss within.
Woman's love is writ in water, Woman's faith is traced in sand. - Sir Robert Aytoun (Ayton) of Kincaldie,
Heav'n has no rage, like love to hatred turn'd. Hell a fury, like a woman scorn'd.
To behold her is an immediate check to loose behavior; to love her is a liberal education.
Beauty, n: the power by which a woman charms a lover and terrifies a husband.
Men love to wonder, and that is the seed of science.
Men love to wonder and that is the seed of our science.
Men love to wonder and that is the seed of our science.
Woo the fair one when around Early birds are singing; When o'er all the fragrant ground Early herbs are springing: When the brookside, bank, and grove All with blossom laden, Shine with beauty, breathe of love, Woo the timid maiden.
How often in the summer-tide, His graver business set aside, His stripling Will, the thoughtful-eyed As to the pipe of Pan, Stepped blithesomely with lover's pride Across the fields to Anne.
He that will win his dame must do As love does when he draws his bow; With one hand thrust the lady from, And with the other pull her home.
Never wedding, ever wooing, Still a lovelorn heart pursuing, Read you not the wrong you're doing In my cheek's pale hue? All my life with sorrow strewing; Wed or cease to woo.
So mourn'd the dame of Ephesus her Love, And thus the Soldier arm'd with Resolution Told his soft Tale, and was a thriving Wooer.
Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
Words of love, are works of love.
Work thou for pleasure--paint or sing or carve The thing thou lovest, though the body starve-- Who works for glory misses oft the goal; Who works for money coins his very soul. Work for the work's sake, then, and it may be That these things shall be added unto thee.
'Tis toil's reward, that sweetens industry, As love inspires with strength the enraptur'd thrush.
I like work; it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours. I love to keep it by me: the idea of getting rid of it nearly breaks my heart.
The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary. â¢Vince Lombardi or â¢Donald Kendall My grandfather once told me that there are two kinds of people: those who do the work and those who take the credit. He told me to try to be in the first group; there was less competition there. â¢Indira Gandhi I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by. â¢Douglas Adams There are no menial jobs, only menial attitudes. â¢William Bennett The world is full of willing people; some willing to work, the rest willing to let them. â¢Robert Frost When work is a pleasure, life is a joy; when work is a duty, life is slavery. â¢Maksim Gorky One machine can do the work of fifty ordinary men. No machine can do the work of one extraordinary man. â¢Elbert Hubbard It is impossible to enjoy idling thoroughly unless one has plenty of work to do. â¢Jerome K Jerome One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that one's work is terribly important. â¢Bertrand Russell Ninety-eight percent of the adults in this country are decent, hard-working, honest Americans. It's the other lousy two percent that get all the publicity. But then--we elected them. â¢Lily Tomlin Anyone can do any amount of work provided it isn't the work he is supposed to be doing at the moment. â¢Robert Benchley Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. â¢Thomas Edison Hard work spotlights the character of people: some turn up their sleeves, some turn up their noses, and some don't turn up at all. â¢Sam Ewing Real success is finding you lifework in the work that you love. â¢David McCullough Executive ability is deciding quickly and getting somebody else to do the work. â¢John G. Pollard Banker: A fellow who lends you his umbrella when the sun is shining and wants it back the minute it begins to rain. â¢Mark Twain
Work is love made visible.
I have not loved the world, not the world me; I have not flatter'd its rank breath, nor bow'd To its idolatries a patient knee.
Love to his soul gave eyes; he knew things are not as they seem. The dream is his real life; the world around him is the dream.
Peace between countries must rest on the solid foundation of love between individuals.
Dear to us are those who love us. . . but dearer are those who reject us as unworthy, for they add another life; they build a heaven before us whereof we had not dreamed, and thereby supply to us new powers out of the recesses of the spirit . . .
If you love the sacred and despise the ordinary, you are still bobbing in the ocean of delusion.
